Saw it yesterday afternoon and I completely agree with you. We dont make films like this any more, plenty of action but lots of slower moments with a bit of dialogue and some character development.
Great, enjoyable film well worth the trip to the cinema, and a very worthy addition to the franchise. Hopefully they will do a few more.
This.
I just got back from the cinema and thoroghly enjoyed it. So many nods to the original (right down to the end credits

) without it even touching on being yet another reboot film. Pete was right in the films of the decade thread, they rarely make them like this any more. While it wasnt 80s action flick revival time or a patch on the original it definitely is an arse-kicking action film that should make any fan of the original grin. Im really impressed with what they pulled out on this, it was well-paced, nicely laid out and with good dialogue and character evolvement where needed. I felt it was cut a bit short if anything.
Ill have to disagree with those that disliked Predator 2, I thought it was a good performance for DG and while not as ballsy and fun as the Arnie/Wethers combo took a decent enough different direction and didnt go too over the top with it.
